There have not been any cases in North Dakota as of yet, but it would probably be wise to not take a chance at becoming the first in the state.

Those that become infected with Salmonella food poisoning usually experience the following symptoms within the first 12 to 72 hours: diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps.

Honestly, I didn't even realize Honey Smacks were still in existence, mainly, because they're gross, but also, because I typically because my cereal of choice 95 percent of the time is CT Crunch (Cinnamon Toast Crunch).

For the time being, if Honey Smacks is your jam, it's time to find a new favorite cereal.
